Product Information
Full details
The Etnies Kingpin trainers are designed for adult men who need a reliable, high-performance shoe for skateboarding or everyday casual wear. These trainers provide excellent impact protection and comfort thanks to a cushioned EVA midsole, though users should note that the leather and suede construction requires periodic maintenance to stay looking sharp.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Etnies Kingpin features a standard regular fit, consistent with most athletic footwear sizing.
Can I use these for professional skateboarding?
Absolutely. The durable rubber sole and impact-cushioning features are specifically designed to support the demands of skateboarding.
How do I clean the rubber sole?
Wipe the rubber edges with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution to keep them looking clean and bright.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
The cushioned footbed provides a moderate level of arch support suitable for most foot types during casual or active wear.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are designed for the shoe, but if you require custom orthotics, the factory insoles are generally removable.
Are these shoes suitable for winter wear?
While durable, they are not insulated or waterproof. They are best suited for dry, temperate weather conditions.
Troubleshooting
The suede is looking worn or faded.
Use a suede brush to restore the nap of the material and apply a suede reviver spray.
Shoes are feeling tight or stiff.
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before stepping in, then lace them up to your preferred tension. Leather will naturally break in and soften with wear.
Accumulation of dirt in the vamp perforations.
Use a toothpick or a small soft brush to gently clear debris from the perforated E branding holes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Kingpin trainers, keep the laces snug but not overtightened to allow for natural foot movement. Because the upper is constructed from genuine leather and suede, avoid machine washing these shoes as it can damage the material texture and the adhesive. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt and a designated suede cleaner for deeper stains. We recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray shortly after purchase to protect the material from the elements. Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking over time.
